Can't Make It to Michigan? The Summit Is Coming to You!

 

The 2026 Samson Summit is almost here—and you don't have to be in Michigan to be part of it! This year's Summit theme, Written in Grace, invites us to see our stories through a different lens—not one of shame, regret, or failure, but through the transforming power of God's grace. And sometimes, that means learning to sit with the painful parts of our stories rather than trying to fix, solve, or move past them. In the sneak peek from the virtual Samson Summit below, Eddie Capparucci explores how men often approach grief as a problem to be solved rather than an experience to be acknowledged and felt. What might change if, instead of trying to fix our pain, we allowed ourselves to sit with it and make room for grace? Take a moment to hear what Eddie has to say: Thanks to our friends at Covenant Eyes, you can experience conversations like this and more through the 2026 Samson Summit virtual livestream! Join Eddie, keynote speaker John Lynch, and our incredible lineup of speakers as we explore what it means to embrace our stories, experience grace, and continue the journey of recovery together. Whether you're joining from your living room, gathering with a few Samson brothers, or tuning in from across the country, there's a place for you at this year's Summit. Registration closes October 21! Don't miss your opportunity to be part of this year's Samson Summit.
